What’s the role of procurement in selecting a consulting firm?
In this short video, we dive into the crucial role of procurement in selecting a consulting firm. While procurement is often sidelined in the consulting buying process, their involvement can unlock many benefits that enhance the effectiveness of consulting engagements.
We discuss how procurement brings structure and transparency to the process, ensuring that RFPs, proposal evaluations, and contract negotiations are handled with best practices. You'll learn how procurement aids in risk management, from addressing legal and financial concerns to ensuring confidentiality and clear governance.
Additionally, we explore how procurement can challenge traditional methods, introducing innovative players and fostering collaboration between stakeholders. By embedding change management from the project's inception, procurement becomes a facilitator that maximizes value and minimizes risks.
If you’re involved in selecting consulting services, this video will provide valuable insights on how to leverage procurement's expertise for successful outcomes. Watch now to discover the transformative impact of procurement in consulting selections!
